OCS acquires
EDS divisions
I
n yet another blow for the
UK demolition industry,
one of its one-time leading
lights has been brought low,
with the announcement that
UK-based facilities management
provider OCS has acquired
the decontamination, access &
insulation and nuclear trading
divisions of EDS, comprising
Euro Dismantling Services,
EDS Plant Solutions and EDS
Group Holdings, from parent
Silverdell plc.
However, the deal excludes
the decommissioning division
operated by Silverdell, resulting
in the likely loss of some 100
demolition jobs, although 500
others have been saved by the
acquisition.
“The specialist services
provided by the acquired business
units will complement our core
facilities management offering”
said Martin Gammon, chief
executive officer for OCS Group
UK and Europe. “This acquisition
once again demonstrates our
unique ability to move swiftly
to secure deals in distressed
circumstances.”

The 2011 terrorist bomb
attack in Oslo, Norway, may
add the loss of five Picasso
designs to the eight persons
killed by that attack and the
further 69 shot later. The
blast damaged the Norwegian
prime minister’s High Block
building that features the
designs so badly that it is
estimated that 400 million
crowns (US$65 million) would
be saved by its demolition
and replacement with a new
construction. The Norwegian
government is to discuss the
possible demolition, including
the Picasso artwork, in Spring
2014.

reported turnover of US$66
million in 2012. According to
financial reports, Silverdell
began experiencing financial
problems in July 2013 when
one of its subsidiaries entered
administration. Its shares
were suspended on 2 July and
cancelled on 2 January 2014.
OCS said it became aware of the
opportunity available to it in
December and worked over the
Christmas period to undertake
due diligence. The terms of the
acquisition were not disclosed. ■
When Avant Tecno launched its
185 demolition robot in spring
last year (see D&Ri Mar-Apr
2013, p57, for more detail) one
rational for its introduction was
that it could be used with the
company’s compact loaders,
suitably modified for the
demolition role, to provide a
‘one stop shop’ for demolition
contractors. This has now been
illustrated by Finnish demolition
contractor Paupek Oy,
admittedly already an Avant
customer, who in November took
delivery of one Robot 185 and
three loaders.
In addition, Avant says that
a new breaker, the B230, will
be released in February that
has been tailored for use on the
Robot 185. The B230 will have
a power of 19.8 kW and a blow
frequency of up to 2,600 per
minute
The electrically driven
Avant Robot 185 features a
compact design that does not
compromise on efficiency or
reach, says the company. It can
be powered either by a 35 A/
18.5 kW or 32A/15 kW electric
motor, to provide flexibility and
power when and where it
is needed.
Equipped with a telescopic
boom, the maximum vertical
reach is 5.5 m (18 ft), while
horizontal reach is 4.5 m (15 ft).
Excluding attachments, the Avant
Robot 185 weighs in at 2,000 kg

(4,400 lb).

Golden year for 777
2014 sees UK contractor 777
Group celebrate its 50th year in
the demolition industry. The
company was founded by John
Pierce in 1964, with son Michael
joining a few years later and
subsequently buying it from his
father in 1981. Michael said of
this period: “When I bought the
business it consisted of just two
machines and one lorry. I set
about expanding it, bringing new
people in to work for me and
building up a fleet of machinery.
I focussed on making sure the
company always delivered on its
promises by keeping our word
and completing jobs to the highest
of standards. To this day, with
over 40 machines and employing
90 staff, this ethos still remains an
integral part of our success.”
777 was one of the first UK
contractors to invest in ultra high
reach excavators when it acquired
a 50 m (165 ft) unit based on
a Hitachi EX1200 provided by
Kocurek in 2003, which was
joined by a second similar
machine in 2007.
As is frequently the case today,
the company’s operations have
expanded to include services that
are complimentary to its initial
demolition role, including state
of the art recycling capabilities at
its HQ in Croydon. Michael said:
“We originally started processing
our own demolition waste at
the site but soon developed a
market taking other contractors’
waste. Such is the success of
the facility that six years ago we
invested several million pounds
in a Vecoplan-sourced processing
plant which gives us the capability
to turn incoming material into
■
refuse derived fuel.”
Bam Nuttall installs
Kosran device
Construction company Bam
Nuttall has installed a fleet
management technology from
Kosran to prevent unauthorised
use of its mobile cranes on site.
The Kosran Safety Access
Control (SAC) system is
designed to stop theft and
unauthorised use of plant
machinery. It is linked to
operators’ training cards so
that only qualified operators can use the equipment, a company
spokesperson explained.
In addition, plant owners have control over who can use the
machines by adding or deleting approved operators. They can also
create a virtual perimeter of the area the equipment can work in
and when it can operate. All this is achieved online via a computer,
smart phone or tablet.
Steve Jarvis, BAM Nuttall Plant general manager, said, “We
pride ourselves on providing the best plant equipment to BAM
Nuttall and that also means employing best practice when it comes
to the safe use and efficient working of that plant."
“Kosran is the market leader in preventing unauthorised use of
plant machinery. It has a great reputation for both its product and
service. We have been very pleased with its use on our crawler
cranes and are now rolling it out to all our mobile plant, including our
telehandlers.”

Washing specialist CDE Global
has solidified its presence in
the US marketplace with the
establishment of a new office
in Silver City, North Carolina
and the development of a
new website, www.cdeusa.
com, specifically tailored
towards this market.
According to the company,
success in North America,
and along the East Coast
in particular, has led to
the formation of CDE
Global Inc. The new base in
North Carolina, and a new
partnership with US operation
American Crushers and

to allow further growth
throughout the USA
Tony Convery, chairman
and founder of CDE Global,
believes that the arrival of the
company in the USA signifies
a significant development of
the washing and classification
equipment available to that
market. He said of the move:
“We have spent considerable
time in the US over the last
18 months and this has
confirmed to us that there
are huge opportunities for
us to help operators to
improve the efficiency of their
operations."
CDE has appointed a
dedicated sales team for
the USA headed up by
Kevin McNamee, business
development manager for
North America, who said:
“Our success so far in the
US market with construction
and recycling projects has
highlighted the requirement
to have our full range of
services located in-country.
Our most recent North
American project has been
a 200 tph natural sand and
gravel wash plant in North
Carolina. The establishment
of the new office provides a
permanent base for our new
US team, which will include
technical, design, project

Major UK contract
win for DKC
The Doosan Keltbray
Consortium has been selected
by Magnox as preferred bidder
for nuclear decommissioning
work at the latter’s Trawsfynydd
Nuclear Power Station in North
Wales, UK, with mobilisation and
preparatory work having already
commenced. The contract, valued
at £29 million (US$46 million),
is intended to be completed
with the site entering its care
and maintenance phase by 2016,
well ahead of the date originally
planned.
Work to be undertaken
covers the de-planting and
demolition of the cooling
ponds complex, covering the
removal of pipework, tanks and
cooling equipment, some of
which has become radioactively
contaminated during the station’s
operational life and earlier phases
of demolition. The consortium
has carried out similar work
at other sites, including the
de-planting of the boiler houses
at Bradwell Power Station,
completed a month ahead of
schedule after two and a half
years of work, during which
New Russian dealer
for Rammer brand
Sandvik has appointed Komek Machinery as official dealer for

in the Urals and western
Siberia and at the same
time provide better access
to the range for customers
throughout the country,
supported by a high level of
aftermarket support.
Komek, established in
2001, supplies a wide range
of specialised equipment and
attachments for the mining, oil,
gas and construction industries
and is now one of the largest
construction equipment
suppliers in the country.
Phill Price, managing director for

250,000 man hours were recorded
without a single lost-time
incident.
According to Trawsfyndd
Magnox site director Peter
Burns: “Decommissioning the
ponds complex is one of the
major projects on the site and its
completion will signify a major
milestone in our journey to care
and maintenance.”
Keltbray’s managing dDirector
for rail & infrastructure, Phill
Price, said of the contract: “the
success of this project will rest
on delivering a safe project, on
time and to budget. However, a
key element of our programme
of works involves working
with the local teams to look
at how we create long term
opportunities beyond the lifetime
of the Trawsfynydd site. The
Doosan Keltbray Consortium
is committed to making this a
■
reality.”
End of the road for Lee Group
UK contractor Lee Group has
ceased trading with immediate
effect with the loss of all 90 fulltime and contract positions.

Despite high profile work in central London, Lee
Group has ceased trading with immediate effect
a reported turnover for 2012 of

the company entered a Company
Voluntary Arrangement in
September 2013 under which
it could continue to trade
and creditors would be paid a
dividend of £0.23 in the pound for
five years. This was an alternative
approach to liquidation.
However, according to
accountants Begbies Traynor
there had been delays in customer
payments and a declining
turnover, which have together
prevented the company from
surviving. Begbies Traynor, with
the support of HM Revenue

£715,000 (US$1.2 million), is
reported as having petitioned for
the liquidation of the company. ■

NEWS REPORT
Lessons to be
learned?
Does onshore industrial decommissioning experience have
something to offer to the offshore oil and gas industry as
North Sea installations reach the end of their working life.
RVA’s Richard Vann believes it does
T
he decommissioning of
oil and gas facilities in
the North Sea presents a
huge challenge, quite literally,
but drawing on the knowledge
and experience of land-based
consultants and contractors could
help smooth the process, argues
Richard Vann, managing director
of RVA Group.
In cost alone, it is projected
that the cumulative expenditure
on removing these outdated
production platforms will be
in the region of £35 billion
(US$58 billion) over the next
30 years. And given that this is
still a relatively new industry,
it is acknowledged that there
are considerable supply chain
weaknesses and bottlenecks to
overcome. Perhaps the biggest
obstacle is the lack of engagement
with those most able to help.
Traditional or onshore
demolition is significantly more
advanced and offers much in the
way of knowledge and experience
that offshore operators could
draw on directly to potentially
overcome some of the hurdles
and issues currently being faced.
TECHNOLOGY
Things have come a long way
since the days of sledgehammers
and wrecking balls. Highly
sophisticated techniques and
Richard Vann spoke on this
topic at the Decom North Sea
Decommissioning Conference
held in St Andrews, UK,
during October 2013
machinery are now used to
decommission complex and
hazardous sites and facilities
over short, medium and longterm timescales. There are
several major players in the
UK – consultants, engineers
and contractors – managing
and undertaking multi-million
dollar, large-scale, high-hazard
and complex plant dismantling
projects as a matter of routine
across the globe.
So how do we take this
capability and employ it in the
offshore sector? Firstly, oil and
gas companies need to recognise
the developments made in the
demolition arena over the last
two decades. In particular, it
needs to consider piece small
dismantling as a mainstream
approach over the traditional
‘bring it back as it went out’
methodology.
In practice, this means
dismantling platform plant and
equipment in-situ. Hazardous
materials, including asbestos
and NORM, can be removed
offshore while waste streams can
be segregated at source ready for
processing and disposal onshore.
This piece small dismantling
approach has several advantages,
including the potential to reduce
the cost of any one particular
project. It provides for the
opportunity to use or share
resources over a number of gas
or oil platforms in an economic
and concurrent or consecutive
sequence. Work can also be
phased to maximise weather
window efficiencies with the
operator retaining a higher level
of flexibility over the whole
project.
Furthermore, piece small
dismantling relies less on
heavy lift vessels (HLV), so
existing supply vessels and
barges can be used for the
A typical example of a North Sea oil
and gas installation. Many are now
reaching the end of their productive life
majority of operations. It also
provides opportunities to use a
wider range of reception facilities
and there are increased choices
in the onshore disposal of
arisings. Even if the HLV
approach is selected for a
platform, tackling 50 m
(165 ft) tall structures weighing
up to 30,000 tonnes and
with a footprint of 70-80 m2
(755-860 ft2) should not be
underestimated. Here again the
leading organisations from the
traditional demolition industry

ENGAGEMENT
So what is the next step?
Richard would like to see a
commitment from platform
operators to seriously investigate
piece small methodology.
Improved engagement with
onshore professionals and the
contracting supply chain is also
required, coupled with making
use of the tried and tested good
practice in the decommissioning,
decontamination, dismantling
and demolition industry.
Just like our colleagues out
at sea, we fully understand
the importance of balancing
cost effective, innovative
and pragmatic dismantling
solutions with EHS excellence.
There is much invaluable
knowledge and experience
available from onshore that will
translate and add considerable
value to offshore dismantling

Unbeatable performance
Nobody beats Brokk when it comes to demolition at reconstructions or renovations of residential,
commercial or industrial facilities. This remote-controlled, electric powerhouse combines impressive
hitting power with an outstanding reach, while the operator works at a safe distance from vibrations
and falling debris.
Brokk is so light that it can work even on weak floors. So clever that it can take the stairs (or the
elevator) between floors. So effective that you see the difference on the bottom line. In each project.

Hitachi’s 25 m ZX470LCH is one of only three high

Flexibility

News of new demolition specification hydraulic excavators
has been somewhat sparse in recent months, with
modifiers around the world providing the majority of the
headlines. Lindsay Gale reports on the sector
A
s with just about every construction
equipment sector, it is engines that
are driving the development, or
rather the lack of it, where demo specification
standard and high reach machines are
concerned. To be more accurate, it is the
latest round of emission regulations that
are responsible for the relative quiet that
has emanated from the main equipment
manufacturers over recent months.
Compliance with Stage IIIB and Tier 4
Interim regulations has resulted in a spate
of large and small standard machines over
the last 24 months as the OEMs ensure that
they have a product range that meets the
requirements of these regulations. However,
lurking in the wings are the even more
stringent Stage IV/Tier 4 Final requirements
that will begin to come into force in Europe,
North America and Japan over the course
of this year and next. This is certainly
concentrating the minds of the OEMs as
they work on incorporating all the additional
elements required for compliance in the shape
of various exhaust aftertreatment systems and

A Cat 390D LME will be

Given that the number of demo spec’d and
high reach machines sold annually around
the world is tiny in comparison to the volume
of standard excavators – precise sales figures
are not available – it is hardly surprising that
manufacturers are likely to be waiting to get
their Stage IV/Tier 4 Final offerings ready
before beginning the development of what
are firmly low volume niche products for our
industry, using these models for the carrier.

Kocurek Excavators is currently working
on the modification of a Cat 390D LME
on behalf of Russian dealer ST Machinery.
Weighing in at 86 tonnes in its unmodified
state, when completed it will carry a three
stage telescopic boom, intermediate and
dipper to give it a reach of 50 m (164 ft),
making it the biggest high reach in the
country when delivered.
At the time of D&Ri’s visit, the carrier
was largely in its unmodified state, although
work has already commenced to fit its
additional dismountable rear counterweight.
When complete, it will feature all the usual
elements of Kocurek’s ultra high reach
machines, namely a hydraulic boom connect
system, tilting cab and a hydraulically extending undercarriage with wider tracks.
The high reach boom elements for the new high reach have already been fabricated

DEMOLITION
EXCAVATORS
German Cat dealer Zeppelin has reportedly sold
at least four 349E UHD high reaches to demolition
contractors around Germany. The machine has a
pin height of 29 m (95 ft), can carry a 3 tonne tool
at that height and has been fitted with a hydraulic
extending undercarriage. It features a hydraulic
boom coupling system and all hydraulic hoses have
quick couplings, allowing boom changes to be made
in just 10 minutes. Dutch modifier STC conducted
the engineering design of the boom and hydraulic
systems, with all fabrication work and hydraulic
system production carried out at its Coevorden
facility in the Netherlands.
Work has begun at Kocurek’s facility to convert a Hitachi ZX470 carrier to turn it into a true multicarrier to allow
it to mount the multiplicity of booms planned by Kiesel
the modification of standard machines to
meet specific customer requirements that
are currently making the headlines. One
dominant trend is emerging in their efforts
and this is ‘carrier flexibility’. Carrying out the
necessary modifications to a new standard
carrier to suit the demanding demolition
function turns the machine into a premium
product, with an attendant hefty purchase
price, and end users are therefore naturally
eager to get the maximum usage out of any
machine that is possible.
When high reach excavators first emerged
from modifiers and OEMs alike, they were
dedicated machines that could only be used
in that role. Over time, coupling systems were
developed to allow them to be used in both
high reach and standard boom configurations,
with change-over times coming down over the
years to, in some cases, less than half an hour
on today’s modern machines.
The last two years have seen this need
for flexibility addressed even further by the
development of new concepts to the point
where a single carrier can be supplied with
a range of front ends that allow it to be used
across a number of different applications in
addition to the demolition and standard dig
applications. One company at the forefront of
this is the UK’s Kocurek Excavators, based in
Ipswich. In 2013, working together with UK
demolition contractor Armac, who was the
driver behind the project, it developed what is
now known as the ABC concept. This consists
of a single carrier than can be equipped with
three different front ends that provide variable
working heights and tool sizes in addition to
a standard dig boom. This allows the machine
to be tailored to the application, but more
importantly, only the single carrier is required
for four potential applications if all boom
configurations are available.
MULTI CARRIERS
And the flexibility concept is being taken a
massive step further by Kocurek working
in partnership with German Hitachi dealer
Kiesel. The result is a single carrier, in the
first instance a Hitachi ZX470LC, that is
able to carry an even wider range of booms
for a variety of different applications for
German customer AWR. It is the first in
what will be known as the KMC470-BTV
range. KMC is the acronym for Kiesel Multi
Carrier, with the B standing for the OilQuick
boom connect system, T for the Tritech three
cylinder quattro valve lift system and V for
variable undercarriage. The idea is that every
470 produced will have the same stub boom
with the OilQuick and three lift cylinders.
The three cylinders provides the necessary
power when in demolition mode but when
in standard mode, the Quattro speed valve
takes away some of the power and allows the

machine to work at the same speed. Many of
Kocurek’s modified machines feature larger
cylinders to provide the power in demolition
mode but which mean that the machine
operates more slowly when in standard mode.
Kiesel and Kocurek are currently
developing a range of front ends for the
carrier – a standard backhoe arm, a two piece
stub boom with a standard dipper, a two piece
with a heavy duty dipper to carry a heavier
tool, a 18 m (59 ft) two stage high reach, a 26
m (85.3 ft) high reach, a 30 m (98.5 ft) high
reach, a 34 m (111.5 ft) telescopic high reach,
an 18 m long reach, a 20 m (65.6 ft) long
reach, a 22 m (72.2 ft) long reach, a 30 m teledipper and a material handling arm as well.
A 34 m high reach on a carrier the size
of a Hitachi 470 is possible through the use
of a fully extending undercarriage – both in
terms of track width as well as full hydraulic
extension. The OilQuick system and the three
lift cylinders also add considerable additional
weight to the carrier in the right places.
Together, these two factors allow the use of a
relatively longer arm.
In addition, work is being carried out to
apply the concept to Hitachi’s ZX350 machine
to turn it into the KMC350-BTV – this has a
stub boom similar to that on the 470 machine
that will be able to carry a standard backhoe,
heavy duty two piece, two stage high reach, 21
m (69 ft) high reach, 24 m (78.8 ft) high reach,
16 m and 18 m long reach, 25 m (82 ft) teledipper and a material handling boom.
Initially where the 470 is concerned,
because it needs a full undercarriage, boom
fabrication and carrier modification will be
carried out by Kocurek. The first machine
will then be transported to Kiesel, who will
then install the hydraulic system using the
highest quality components possible since
the machine will be supplied to AWR with an
extended warranty.
When the second is ordered, Kocurek
again will carry out the necessary carrier
modifications, but Kiesel will send all the
hydraulic components used on the AWR
machine to Ipswich, where Kocurek will
carry out all assembly and testing. It is this
production route that all further KMC470
machines will follow.
With the KMC350 machines, all
modifications will be undertaken at Kiesel’s

Liebherr has modified an R 974 C demolition specification excavator to allow it to carry a 13,410 kg
(29,500 lb) La Bounty MSD 7500 R shear for French contractor Brunel Demolition that will find use during
the demolition of power stations. In addition to the usual tilting cab and extending undercarriage, the new
machine features a mechanical quick coupler system for the boom that allows an attachment change in just 10
minutes. Liebherr says that the demolition versions of its excavators will be delivered with a Stage IIIA/Tier 3
engine until the end of 2015.
own engineering facility to avoid unnecessary
transport costs.
Orders have been placed for these
numerous different front ends to be produced
by Kocurek over the course of 2014 as stock
for Kiesel, who is confident that they will
be sold on the basis of enquiries that have
been received to date. Kocurek reports that
everything it has produced to date in Ipswich
for Kiesel for stock has been sold before it
has been completed. However, two KMC350
machines have already been converted, with
five more base machines ordered with various
front ends. Where the KMC470 is concerned,
four have already been ordered for 2014, with
the one currently at Kocurek the first of these.
According to Kocurek, all these further orders
are for delivery in the first half of the year, so
the total demand for 2014 delivery is likely to
be even greater,
KEEPING THEM WORKING
Kiesel are pushing to sell the concept outside
of Germany, although this raises the issue of
service and support, since the machines will
be marketed and sold as KMC rather than
Hitachi. However, the warranty issues with
the carrier could be dealt with by the relevant
national Hitachi dealer, with Kiesel supplying the service and support of the booms and
associated hydraulics and OilQuick systems,
perhaps through the Terex Fuchs dealer
network (Kiesel is a German dealer for this
brand). Should KMC machines be sold into
the UK market, the service and support would
be handled by Kocurek from its Ipswich base.
The experience it will gain while carrying out
the installation of the various systems of the
KMC470 would obviously be invaluable in this
regard. However, the OilQuick system itself is
not as popularin the UK as it is in Germany,
in part because of its cost, and that might well
impact on the acceptance of the concept. So it
may be early days for the KMC concept outside of the German speaking region of Europe.
Nevertheless, it is clear that KMC and
other similar concepts, such as Kocurek’s
own ABC, look likely to change the face of
the mid sized demolition excavator sector.
Buying one modified carrier with a selection
of front ends that can be used across the full
spectrum of applications to be found in the
sector obviously offers substantial economic
benefits over the cost of three or possibly four
machines that can only be used in one or two,
especially when the carriers themselves are
the volume end of the machines that find their
way into our industry.
The only negative then could be that the
volume of work encountered at any one time
for a contractor might well be greater than a
single machine and operator could handle,
but that might not really be a bad position to

As far as the new dozers go – the 22 tonne
class 2050M, 18 tonne class 1650M, 15 tonne
class 1150M, 10 tonne class 850M and 9 tonne
class 750M – Case said the range boasted fuel
savings of up to 14%.
Wacker Neuson says it also plans to
introduce a variety of new products at the
show, including a new range of skid steer
and compact tracked loaders. It said four
new models would be available through the
company’s US and Canadian distributor
network starting in mid-2014 – two wheeled
skid steer models, the SW 24 and SW 28,
and two compact track loaders, the ST 35
and ST 45.
Like others, Wacker Neuson said it would
reveal more details of these new launches at
the show. In addition to the new compact
loaders and skid steers, it also plans to
introduce a new mini excavator in the shape
of the 1 tonne class 803. It said this machine
could fit through standard interior doors and
was available with a dual power option – it
can be changed from diesel to electric power
for use indoors.
Other new machines on show from the
company will include an ET 20 compact
tracked excavator, examples from its latest
generation of vibratory rammers and new
compaction control technology known as
Compatec for its DPU 6555Hec reversible
plate, among others.
Doosan and subsidiary company Bobcat
will also be present at the event, and Tier 4
Final launches will be a major theme of new
launches for them as well. Doosan said it
would reveal its new Tier 4 Final-compliant
machines on the first day of the show, but
said its stand would also feature a number of
recently launched Tier 4 Interim/Stage IIIB
compliant excavators and wheeled loaders,
including the new DX140LCR-3 crawler
excavator, the DX190W-3 wheeled excavator
and the DL200-3 wheeled loader.
For its part, Bobcat plans to launch its first
Tier 4 Final-compliant compact loaders – the
new 500 series. The S510 and S550 skid-steer
loaders have a radius lift path, while the new
S530, S570 and S590 skid-steer and T590
compact tracked loader models feature a
vertical lift path.
All the new machines feature a protection
system that monitors, manages and shuts
down the engine if needed. This technology
monitors engine coolant and oil temperatures,
A highlight of the show will be Metso’s new
ST2.8 mobile screen
CDE Global will launch the
M4500 portable wash plant at the show
Major Wire will be showcasing its Flex-Mat 3 –
high-performance screen media that it claims is
significantly increasing production in a wide range
of screening operations
and will manage engine systems to reduce
the potential of these fluids reaching a
temperature point where the machine has to
be shut down. This is intended to minimise
potential damage to the engine, stop
unnecessary engine wear and keep operators
working.
CRUSHING & SCREENING
From bucket attachments through to full size
plant, there will be plenty on show for those
looking for the latest crushing and screening
equipment.

Rockster Recycler will use ConExpo to introduce
its latest compact tracked impact crusher in the
form of a hybrid unit that has been developed
for a French construction company. Based on its
R1100D unit, the new machine features a diesel
engine operating at a nearly constant optimal
speed to drive a generator that in turn powers
an electric motor. Permanent-magnet technology
guarantees a decrease of energy consumption,
better engine and generator performance and
maximum performance density with lower weight
and smaller components. Any load peaks are
cushioned by condensers that buffer the energy.
Fuel consumption is reduced and through the use
of virtually maintenance-free electric motors,
maintenance costs are minimised. Rockster claims
that up to 16,000 litres of diesel can be saved
annually using this technology.
showcasing a new concept at the event that
although designed for the mining industry,
may prove of general interest in the shape
of its M-Series mobile Screener Crushers
that consists of three models for excavators
from 50 to 200 tonnes and three models for
wheeled loaders from 30 to 100 tones. In
addition, the company’s DL light Screening
Buckets will be enhanced by the launch of
three new units to broaden the coverage of the
range from 4 to 14 tonne excavators and 2 to 8

What US customers say about Rockster
„Our Rockster crusher R1200/1100 Duplex (jaw and impact with one machine)
has been a wonderful addition to our
company. We utilize it mainly as impact
crusher in the production of recycled
asphalt pavement for use as base course
material for rebuilding the road. We
have even used the crusher with the
interchangeable jaw in our quarry in
Colchester, producing sub base gravel.
We bought the machine after Conexpo
2011 and it has worked fabulously ever
since. It is in production 10-12 hours a
day 6 days a week for about 7-8 months
a year.“
„The fact that the Rockster crusher R800/900 can be
switched from Jaw to Impactor made it an easy decision. The unique design of the duplex system allows
us to get maximum utilization of the machine, as it
can be used in various application from virgin stone to
recycled asphalt and concrete. Three years and almost
4000 hours later the machine continues to perform
and shock our customers with its production and material quality despite its compact size.“

ENVIRONMENT
& RECYCLING
Making the
most of waste
This special report details the entries that were shortlisted for
the 2013 Recycling & Environmental Award. Unusually, the
judges selected as the winner a system specially developed
to process a particular hazardous waste that arises during
demolition rather than making the award for a specific recycling
project as has been the case in past years
R
ecycling is all about efficient use and
reuse of valuable and sometimes
scarce material resources allied to care
for the environment in the process. In the five
year history of the World Demolition Awards,
the judging panel has usually opted to select a
specific project as the winner of the Recycling
& Environmental category.
In 2013, the mould was broken, with
the jaward going to Danish contractor J
Jenson A/S, who has developed a system in
conjunction with surface cleaning specialist
Omø A/S that allows the clean, controlled
and contained removal of hazardous coatings,
such as paint containing Poly-Chlorinated
Biphenyls (PCBs) and lead
An efficient filter system is at the heart of the system
that separates pollutants from the abrasive agent
following coating removal
Poly-Chlorinated Biphenyls are named as
being among the world’s 12 most dangerous
pollutants. PCBs were widely used by the
construction industry in Denmark from 1950
to 1977, at which time their use was banned.
Today, PCBs, along with lead, pose a major
challenge when buildings dating from those
years are being internally remodelled or
totally demolished. Using traditional removal
methods these substances can easily spread
as dust in the atmosphere both inside and
outside the building, and inhalation of these
substances can be extremely hazardous to
health, including the potential to cause brain
damage.
Traditional techniques for removing
such coatings frequently involves the use of
blasting the surface to be cleaned with abrasive
particles, which can create dust, noise and
waste materials that have to be contained in
some manner.
This offers the potential for the escape
of potentially hazardous materials into the
environment and a working environment
that is far from ideal. In addition, methods
for separating the toxic substances from the
blasting media were not readily available.
J Jensen identified a solution from the
USA called SpongeJet, where blasting was
carried out using tiny sponge mushrooms,
instead of sand, that absorb the particles of the
coating being removed, thus minimising dust
and other debris production. Subsequently
J Jensen, working together with a French
company, developed a
very effective carbon
filter that efficiently
removes the PCBs and
lead absorbed by the
sponge mushrooms.
This system was then
built into a container,
which means that
The resulting waste is
packed into lined and
sealed drums in the
container
Traditional surface cleaning methods risk both
workers and passers-by to potential exposure to
hazardous substances
J Jensen and Omo together developed a contained
cleaning system that makes use of sponge
‘mushrooms’ as the abrasive agent
nothing escapes. The uniqueness of the J.
Jensen and Omø closed system is that all dust
and other hazardous vapours are directed
into the container through the use of an
Omø vacuum cleaning system. The PCB and
lead removed by the filter from the sponge
mushrooms can be packed into sealed and
lined barrels directly from the container and
the small sponge blasting media cleaned and
reused. This means the solution also works on
environmental clean-up and demolition will
be significantly less risky for employees of J
Jensen and Omø.
The system consists of three main elements.

flow of the sponge mushrooms, which are
available in different hardnesses and surfaces
depending on the nature of the coating
to be removed, to improve productivity
and also controls the media mix and the
pressure. The Sponge-Jet media classifier
cleans and separates used blowing agent
into three categories – oversize waste, small
waste particles, dust and broken sponge,
and recycled abrasive sponge. A control
unit monitors the system to ensure efficient
operation and automatically shuts the SpongeJet system down in the event of malfunction
to prevent the potential release of hazardous
substances into the atmosphere.
The two companies believe that the
solution has international potential. A
significant number of public and private
buildings not only in Denmark but across
Europe are contaminated with PCBs and lead.
This suggests that there are great opportunities
for this Danish invention. J. Jensen A/S
and Omø A/S are already in discussions
with potential partners around the world
concerning the use of this system.
INNER CITY WORKING
In 2012, Cantillon Limited was appointed by
Sir Robert McAlpine to deconstruct rather
than demolish 29-37 Davies Street, Mayfair,
London, a 7 storey building (including the
basement) because of several environmental
issues that needed to be considered out-loading material arisings from the
deconstruction, noise from the work, the
inevitable dust that would be created from
a building some 100 years old, asbestos
containing materials (ACM) and not least of
all being able to manage a project of this size
in one of the most congested areas in West
London without causing a nuisance that would
increase what is already a very real traffic
problem. The location of the building required
careful thought about how out-loading
materials would be carried out, as can be seen
from the location; directly behind the building
were the Italian and Canadian Embassies
and the Argentine Consulate, Grosvenor Sq.
Garden to the west, New Bond Street and
Noise monitoring was an important
feature of this project
32
Hanover Sq. just to the east and Grosvenor
Street to the south. To the north end of Davies
Street was a Crossrail Project Site that had to
be brought into the project planning. It was
crucial therefore that disruption to residents
and local businesses was absolutely minimised
– from start to finish.
The materials from which the structure
was built were nothing out of the ordinary;
brick, steel, concrete, glass, wood and other
metals etc. However, what made this building
a little more thought provoking was that
several floors had much of their walls and
ceilings painted in a bitumen paint that
contained asbestos, acting as a fire retardant
product. The problem lay in removing the
ACM (which was deemed as non-licensable
work) without allowing it become friable
and therefore detrimental to the public who
passed by the building (a major thoroughfare
to Oxford Street to the north), of course to
the wider environment itself, to contaminate
other arisings from the deconstruction, that
might be used on other construction sites after
processing, and not least of all to operatives
working on the project.
Cantillon utilises a range of innovative
measures to significantly improve the control
it has over noise production during work.
With noise likely to be the main complaint
area the company had to ensure that it was
The location of 29-37 Davies Street in the heart of the
city of London
reduced as much as possible. To establish the
likely problem areas Cantillon created several
3D noise models predicting noise levels from
the ground to 5th floor, showing at each height
what the predicted levels were likely to be for
the surrounding buildings.
This was completed before commencing
work and buildings particularly susceptible
to noise were identified. Reducing noise by
engineering methods always comes second
to eliminating noise through methodology;
however in this instance Cantillon was unable
to eliminate it all together. With knowing
the buildings where noise was likely to be a
problem; 29-37 Davies Street was encapsulated
and instead of using just using fire retardant
sheeting, Powerclad Acoustic sheeting
(also fire retardant) was used and in places
acoustic blankets were positioned to enhance
attenuation further.
Removing the ACM was now the next
issue to overcome. This had to done with the
least amount of problems both to the public
and wider environment and was achieved
by treating it as Licensable Asbestos and
enclosing all the areas where it had to be
removed. This ensured that nothing would
escape. Next Cantillon wanted to remove it
using something that was as environmentally
friendly as possible and research identified a
substance that was derived from citrus fruit,
thus replacing substances such as chlorinated
and kerosene based solvents. The substance

softened the bitumen allowing it to be scraped
off the surfaces but also keeping any asbestos
fibres within the confines of the bitumen;.
This allowed the arisings to be easily packaged
and sent away for disposal, eliminating
environmental and indeed personal
contamination. Although not possible in this
case because of the asbestos contamination, in
use the bitumen remover is also recoverable.
Materials resulting from the deconstruction
weighed 8,792.51 tonnes, of which the project
was able recycle 8,787.41 tonne, giving a
recycling rate of 99.94%, the other 0.6% was
the ACM that is currently not recyclable.
Unfortunately due to the constricted nature
of the site the client was unable to reuse any of
the material arisings form the site and so all of
it had to be shipped off site for processing.
DEMOLITION ART FORM
In an unusual project in the spring of 2013,
Lloyd’s Construction Services, Inc. (LCS)
of Savage, Minnesota was able to showcase
demolition as art. Given the opportunity,
Lloyd’s was able to not only have a positive
environmental impact on the handling of
demolition debris, but also to creatively take it
a step above and beyond what most consider
“reuse” and help to create expansive pieces of
functional artwork that are available for the
public to appreciate and interpret.
This past year LCS had the honour of
working with world renowned artist Abraham
Cruzvillegas to create his latest installation,
The Autoconstrucción Suites. This politically
charged exhibit located at the Walker Art
Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota, is intended
to shed light on the poverty experienced in
the small town just south of Mexico City
where Cruzvillegas grew up. His creations
were intended to mimic the improvisation of
construction practices commonly used in his
village. In order to further educate viewers on
his art, Abraham not only produced sculptures
that represented these beliefs and experiences,
but additionally utilised the performing arts as
a supplement to his education initiative. The
salvaged debris exhibited in his work doubled
as a functional prop in public performances
given. Finding reusable building material to
create the pieces of artwork that Abraham
Cruzvillegas had imagined became an
extremely crucial step in achieving his vision.
In addition to supplying demolition waste for use
in the installation, Lloyds also carried out work
on the exhibition space itself
Ferma at Campbell Hall
In May of 2012 Ferma Corporation was contracted to demolish Campbell Hall, a 7
story concrete structure with a 3.6 m (12 ft) concrete overhang in the centre square
at U.C. Berkeley, California, and located within the Strawberry Creek Protective Habitat.
With this, and demolition being scheduled during the last month of school meaning
heavy student traffic, dust suppression was of the highest importance. Water for dust
suppression had to be monitored and prevented from entering the storm drains and creek
that were located within 6 m (20 ft) of the building. Vibration monitoring was also needed
due to the close proximity to other buildings housing scientific research projects. A 180
tonne excavator was used for the project, leaving little room for error due to its size.
After demolition was completed, excavation for the new building had to be carried
out into the hillside. This excavation was within close proximity to a number of sensitive
utilities, such as 0.9 m (3 ft) steam lines.
This combined with the heavy student
traffic made it difficult to transport the
5,352 m3 (189,000 ft3) of material off
the site.
In just six weeks for the demolition
and three weeks for excavation, the
project was completed putting the general
contractor two weeks ahead of schedule.
The project was completed with no
complaints or incidents, with 99.1% of all
material being recycled.
A confined site and careful
waste water management
were major features of the
demolition of Campbell Hall
As a selective demolition contractor in
the Twin Cities metropolitan area, Lloyd’s
Construction Services, Inc. has established
a strong and exclusive relationship with the
Walker Art Center and is regularly called upon
to complete the delicate work of dismantling
galleries to make way for new exhibits. As the
only trusted demolition contractor with this
client, LCS was asked to not only perform
the necessary demolition work to create the
space for Cruzvillegas’s installation, but was
also asked to provide the reusable materials
for his creation. Through the use of salvaging
techniques on this and other recent projects,
reclaimed debris was provided from stockpiled
material that had been sorted and stored at
■
LCS’s local transfer facility.

Munich launch
for Sennebogen
Sennebogen will use the
forthcoming IFAT 2014 trade
show being held in Munich,
Germany, on May 5 – 9,
2014, to introduce its new
E Series 818
D
esigned for all recycling and sorting
tasks, the new E Series Sennebogen
818 joins the larger 821 and offers
compact dimensions and optimised energy
consumption values. It is available as a
wheeled unit, on tracks or stationary with
electric drive, and according to the company,
provides an ideal solution for every material
handling challenge.
Equipped with a 97 kW (130 hp) Cummins
diesel engine that meets current Stage IIIB/
Tier 4 Interim emissions regulations, the
818 features a completely new design and
optimised technology.
According to Sennebogen, during the
development of this material handling
machine particular priority was placed on
offering a cost-effective alternative to larger
material handling alternatives. The company
claims that the machine is particularly
well-suited for sorting and loading paper
or for recycling materials from the waste
management industry. With various
equipment lengths and ULM stick, the new
818 E-Series is ideal for these sorting tasks.
With a space-saving length of 4.8 m (15.7
ft) and width of 3.6 m (11.8 ft), the 818 M
can easily maneuver. It features a rear swing
radius of less than 2.4 m (7.9 ft) to ensure
safe working in the most confined spaces.
Sennebogen is using the new maXcab for the
first time in this machine class to offer the
operator an ideal overview at a height of 5.5
m (18 ft) of the working environment thanks
to factory standard surround-view cameras
resulting in the highest level of work safety.
FLEXIBILITY
The equipment of the Sennebogen 818 is
available in four variants offering a reach
up to 10 m (30.5 ft). Only one boom and
one stick cylinder are necessary in order
to move all the equipment - an important
advantage in terms of maintenance and
ease of service. The arrangement of the
cylinders below the equipment provides
vulnerable seals additional protection against
contamination due to falling particles and
dust. At high dust burdens, optimised fan
reversal ensures reliable cleaning of the
radiator grill elements and the generously
dimensioned radiator guarantees optimal heat
dissipation. Safe working loads to 6 tonnes
can be handled comfortably. The company’s
modular design principle ensures an optimal
machine configuration and undercarriage
variants, from mobile to crawler drives
to stationary solutions, offer individual
equipment possibilities. As an alternative
to the conventional diesel engine, the 818 is
also available with a proven electro-hydraulic
drive concept. Operating costs reduced by
as much as 50%, low noise and the ability to
work without stopping to refuel, as well as
maximum environmental compatibility, are
the key advantages offered by this system, says
Sennebogen.
The highest level of precision and
sensitivity are required for material handling
in these applications. In this regard the
boom can be considered figuratively as the
extended arm of the machine’s operator and
the attached grapple figuratively as his hands.
As a result, Sennebogen has been offering its
own line of grapples for demanding material
handling applications for all types of goods.
Whether sorting grab, multi-shell and clam
shell grab, extending to magnet grabs, in the
extensive product range the right attachment
for every use is available from the factory.
AT WORK
In Aschaffenburg, Germany, in an initial
trial implementation at the end of 2013, the
machine was put to the test in a practical
application with considerable success.
Bernhard Westarp KG specialises in the
disposal and further processing of metal waste
of all types. The family-run business handles
approximately 1,000 tonnes of such material
per day in the Ökopark development. Here the
new 818 M was deployed to carry out sorting
and loading activities across the entire site. In
addition, the machine’s compact dimensions
allowed it to be used in the company’s large
sorting halls.
In this application, the 818 was primarily
loading trucks with stamping scrap from the
electrical industry, which will be transported
for further processing. The compact design
permitted use even in the narrowest sorting
boxes. Sennebogen’s proven Green Efficiency
Technology promises efficient operation at the
lowest consumption values. In test operation,
a diesel consumption of less than 12 liters per
hour was determined in a test implementation
at Westarp. Single-digit consumption values
are also possible depending on the work
implementation. Moreover, the company was
able to confirm a fuel consumption reduction
of as much as 20% when the machine is
■
operated in ECO Mode.
The new Sennebogen 818 E-Series was used in initial
trial operation at Bernhard Westarp KG. The machine
is particularly well-suited for loading trucks and for
the various sorting tasks on the entire site

SITE REPORT
A dirty job
New Zealand contractor Nikau
was shortlisted for the 2013
Contract of the Year Award
O
n February 22nd 2011, Christchurch,
New Zealand, was hit by the
devastating 6.3 magnitude earthquake.
Twenty-two seconds of violent shaking
twisted and contorted buildings in a manner
even the most acclaimed engineer would not
have imagined possible. The central business
district was rendered impotent.
The 14 storey Holiday Inn City Centre
building, the second largest multi-storey hotel
in New Zealand to have been demolished,
was one such victim. The damage sustained
was too great to warrant the cost of repair.,
thus the Holiday Inn City Centre building was
condemned to deconstruction.
The programme of deconstruction began in
October 2012 with an initial proposed project
duration of eight months. The structure
was demolished to basement level within
four months from commencement of work,
delays being caused through engineering
authorisation and changes in demolition
methodologies due to factors outside of the
demolition contractor’s control. The works
were successfully completed ahead of schedule,
with final site sign off conducted in June 2013.
The Holiday Inn was the second largest
multi-storey hotel in New Zealand to have
been demolished, with a total mass of 20,000
tons. Despite hotel staff removing limited
furniture, fixtures, fittings, floor and wall
coverings, curtains, chiller and refrigeration
units were still present within the building.
Initial engineering assessments on the
structure allowed for a traditional demolition
method combining soft strip, cut and crane
with eventual mechanical deconstruction from
the 10th floor downwards. However, once
works were underway, further assessment
deemed that a new approach was required due
to structural destabilisation. These changes
posed great challenges to Nikau not only in the
deconstruction phase, but also by posing the
key question; “how best to manage 13 storeys
of dirty demolition material?”
The Holiday
Inn City
Centre in
Christchurch –
soft strip had
started before
the scale of

damage was
identified
SOFT STRIP INTO
“DIRTY DEMOLITION”
Prior to structural demolition, a complete soft
strip of the building was to be undertaken
to allow the demolition of the building as a
concrete skeleton, with propping installed
in the stairwells to allow for safe access.
In tandem, a 200 ton crawler crane was
mobilised onsite to lift plant machinery,
the copper roof structure and the planned
top three steel levels to ground. However,
during the early soft strip stage it was
revealed the earthquake damage was so
severe on the top floors that CERA engineers
condemned the building from further softstrip or even strengthening works. Only
two of the 14 floors had been soft stripped
when CERA engineers issued a Section 38
‘Twinkle Toes’ at work on the
main tower of the hotel

letter to the client. Unfortunately, due to the
rapid condemnation, the propping that was
installed could not be retrieved, at a cost of
NZD$80,000 (US$67,300).
Due to CERA’s instructions to the client,
Nikau had to come up with methodologies to
ensure not just the safety of its personnel, but
also the surrounding environment and other
demolition works that were also taking place
within 20 m (66 ft) of the building on the 13
storey Westpac Tower that was also in the
process of deconstructing.
A major concern with the change in
methodology requirement was the amount
of dirty demolition material that could
potentially cost millions of dollars if taken the
landfill. Nikau had to come up with methods
of both sourcing and co-mingling recycling
processes to reduce costs to the client and
optimise the recovery of valuable salvage
materials.
During this period, site preparation works
commenced, including the installation of
street and footpath protection, and removal of
Christchurch City Council assets to allow for
the mechanical deconstruction using Nikau’s
65 m high (213.6 ft) high reach excavator,
nicknamed ‘Twinkle Toes’.
ULTRA HIGH
REACH DEMOLITION
The third phase of demolition was to mobilise
Twinkle Toes, which was then demolishing
a 12 storey concrete car-park structure
a kilometre away. Due to the emergency
demolition instructed by CERA, Nikau had
been given consent to walk the machine
through the streets of central Christchurch on
swamp mats to the site.
Soon after its arrival and approval of the
demolition methodology, it began work on the
building. Due to the complex tube structural
design the structure had to be demolished in
intervals of up to four floors at a time around
the perimeter to keep the structural integrity
of the lower levels.
Nikau had convinced CERA engineers that
there was the potential for a collapse of the
internal floors beams and columns, but this
would not be an issue as the internal structure
would end up in the basement.
Again, with the presence of the substation
within the basement, great care had to be
taken to ensure that the material that did go
into the basement was not large enough to
pierce the protective slab above it.
Once the tower was down to a workable height,
demolition excavators took over from the ultra high reach
Nikau removed a total of 20,000 tons of
debris from the site to its recycling yard in
Woolston, Christchurch, approximately 15 km
from the site. Once there, excavators began to
sort material, removing steel with magnets and
sizing concrete to allow for separation of the
soft materials from hard materials.
This took huge ingenuity as New Zealand
was not set up for this type of material
separation, nor was it available off the shelf
from a local company, and the value of the
material did not warrant a fully dedicated
recycling system from Europe. Nikau had
to come up with a way of utilising its own
crushers, screens, washers and stackers to keep
the cost low enough to validate not sending all
of the material directly to the landfill.
Nikau developed the first mobile operation
in New Zealand for sorting demolition
waste without spending large sums on fixed
plant and had utilised similar operations on
previous demolition sites. A few trials were
required but Nikau managed to place the right
machines in the right sequence of processing
line as follows. Excavators sorted larger
material which was then crushed by a mobile
jaw crusher with manual timber separation,
with a mobile screen then sizing the result. A
mobile washing separation system was used
to separate floating materials from concrete
- the first time this equipment was used for
demolition. Manual sorting was used to
separate the non-ferrous, insulation materials
and other materials from the timber waste,
with a mobile shredder used to further size
down the timber materials to be used a boiler
fuel at hospitals. Combustion testing was done
to ensure the materials did not contain heavy
treated timbers and other contaminants.
All other waste that could not warrant
more processing was landfilled. A total of 50
tonnes of materials was disposed of to landfill
through this operation.
BASEMENT REMEDIATION
Once the demolition materials had been
removed, the owner then wanted to keep the
basement, so careful demolition and wiresawing of the concrete columns and a total
clean-up of the site had to be done. There was
no damage to the protective slab to the substation that was safely salvaged.
Personnel safety is of paramount
importance. However, the continued seismic
activity necessitated an unprecedented
level of diligence and procedural training,
including high standards of documentation
and communication through to both
site personnel, surrounding demolition
companies, regulatory authorities and the
client.
A dedicated health and safety
representative was onsite at all times during
the initial soft strip, through to cut and crane
and the eventual mechanical deconstruction,
providing monitoring and auditing for
compliance as well as training, reporting and
communication through to site personnel.
A shipping container stood permanently
onsite for the express use as a safety bunker
should there be a major seismic event during
the deconstruction process. Furthermore,
with the onset of the harsh sub Antarctic
winter, working conditions were extra
challenging, combating extreme temperatures
and heavy snow.
Up until the condemning of the building
with the Section 38 letter, (thereafter
no further access into the building was
permitted), demolition access to the building
was maintained via the existing stairwells,
which had been substantially propped.
However, in the event of an emergency, there
was a 200 ton crawler crane onsite utilising
man cages that could lift personnel to safety.
During the cut and crane process, all
onsite lifting activities were coordinated by a
crane manager working to the relevant lifting
plan, and dismantled sections of the building
were lowered into a fenced off drop zone. All
slinging and de-slinging was carried out by
competent and certified riggers/dogmen.
Communication was continuously
managed in a controlled manner using
dedicated channel two-way radios.
Over 7,110.5 man hours were recorded
onsite with no incidents or accidents
■
recorded, including near misses.
Although a 'dirty' demolition, much of the
resulting 20,000 tonnes of debris was
processed for recycling

F
our new breakers have been added
by Cat to its E Series line, intended
for customers using mini excavators,
skid steers and backhoes in North and
South America. The new breakers are the
H35E, H45E, H55E and H65E, and all four
are available in either standard or silent
configurations, with the latter breakers
carrying an additional ‘s’ designation after the
model number, e,g. H35Es. In addition, the
H45E and H55E are also available as pin-on
and flat-top units. The flat top models can be
used on Cat machines and those from other
OEMs, while the pin-on models are use on
dedicated hammer-equipped Cat carriers.
The H35E is intended for carriers weighing
from 1.1 to 2.4 tonnes, the H45E is for 1.5 to
3 tonne carriers, the H55E is for 2.5 to 6 tonnes
carriers and the H65E is for use on carriers
weighing from 3 to 9 tonnes.
The silenced versions use a fully enclosed
housing to suppress noise and the suspension
system includes buffers at the top and bottom
to adsorb reflective forces and isolate the
breaker from the carrier and a suspension jack
helps to dampen vibration and sound.
The new breakers feature 47% fewer parts
than the equivalent D-Series model they
Four new breakers have joined Cat’s E
Series for compact equipmen
replace to provide quicker and easier servicing.
According to Cat, the new hammers have been
designed and engineered to match the auxiliary
flows and pressures of its own carriers.

883 Spalek a hit in the UK
T
erex Finlay’s 883 Spalek tracked screen
is proving to be a popular solution
for UK recyclers, according to dealer
Finlay Group. This may be due to recent issues
resulting from the classification of trommel
fines for the UK’s Landfill Tax that sees such
fines as being classed as non-inert as a result of
the potential for contamination from plastic,
wood and other biodegradable waste. This
results in a much higher rate of landfill tax
When Avant Tecno launched its 185 demolition robot in spring this year (see D&Ri Mar-Apr 2013, p57 for
more detail) one rational for its introduction was that it could be used with the company’s compact loaders
to provide a ‘one stop shop’ for demolition contractors. This has now been illustrated by Finnish demolition
contractor Paupek Oy, admittedly already an Avant customer, who in November took delivery of one Robot
185 and three loaders.
In addition, Avant says that a new breaker, the B230, will be released in February that has been
tailored for use on the Robot 185. The B230 will have an power of 19.8 kW and a blow frequency of up to
2,600 per minute.
The FSL100 –
Anaconda’s new
scalping screen
Anaconda has celebrated the start of 2014 with
the introduction of a new scalping screen, the
FSL199, which it says has been designed for
some of the toughest applications in quarries,
mines and recycling facilities. It is intended to
meet the demand from customers who do not
require conventional three way separation of
product.
Anaconda’s new FSL100 can
produce two end products and is claimed
to be ideal as a pre or post crushing screener
44
The machine is powered by a JCB444
Dieselmax engine or a Deutz TD2011FL04i
engine. The two-deck vibrating grid can be
fitted with grizzly bars, fingers, punch plate
or mesh, with the hopper protected by a heavy
duty plate to prevent damage when oversize
is cleared. Both the feeder and discharge belts
offer variable speed control with the machine
controlled by wired or radio remote control
Anaconda managing director Alistair
Forsyth said of the FSL100: “Designing new
products in tandem with our dealer network
has been a key factor in our success to
date. The FSL100 has once again evolved
from these discussions and we hope we
have been able to address a gap in the
market for this type of machine. Although
the machine is different from what has
gone before, our customers will find
the same core ingredients in this model
– quality, robust design, easy to use and
■
affordable.”
being levied for their disposal than for
inert waste.
The high rate of separation offered by the
883 results in a very clean 0-10 mm (0-0.45
inch) fine that, especially when processing
construction and demolition waste, may be
largely composed of particles that are classed
as inert, such as sub-soil and clay, and which
therefore may not need to be sent to landfill
at all.
The key to the 883’s success is Spalek’s 3-D
combi Flip-Flow design bottom deck that uses
rubber panels that move in a wave action,
as well as expand and contract, to keep the
waste in constant motion, This breaks down
sticky material, such as clay and soil, making
it possible to produce a fine with minimal
contamination for non-inert material such as
wood and plastic, which generally fall into the
+10 mm (+0.45 inch) particle band.
According to Leon Shehhy, managing
director of Finlay Plant South East (part
of the Finlay Group): “The 883 Spaleck is
really proving its worth out on site. As well
as providing waste processors with a possible
solution for trommel fines, its sheer processing
capacity and ability to tackle significant
volumes of material makes it hard to beat.” ■
Kobelco Construction Machinery Europe has
introduced two new 21 tonne class tracked
excavators in the shape of the SK210LC-9 and
SK210NLC-9. Built in Japan, the two machines
are Stage IIIB/Tier 4 Interim compliant with
regard to emissions through the use of the Hino
JO6E-T53 turbocharged diesel. They offer three
work modes - Heavy, Standard and ECO – and
feature automatic idle stop to help reduce fuel
consumption.
According to the company, the new machines
offer a 4.7% reduction in fuel consumption in
Heavy mode against the models they replace, with
corresponding reductions of 5% in Standard and
17.3% in Eco. Maximum power and torque output
provides smooth progressive travel on all types
of terrain and optimised lift, swing and dig action
of the arm. According to the company, a stateof-the-art hydraulic control system complements
the precise and seamless arm operation with less
engine performance input required to also help
reduce fuel consumption.

Rivners’ new giant
starts work
R
ivners AB has taken delivery of a
new Trevi Benne MK 70, supplied
via Swedish dealer Andersen
Contractor, based in Õrsundbro, just outside
Uppsala. Said to be the largest multiprocessor
currently available, the new attachment was
delivered with pulveriser and concrete shear
jaw sets. The MK 70 weighs in at 9,000 kg
(19,800 lb) and requires a carrier from 75
to 100 tonnes. When fitted with its scrap
shear or concrete shear, the MK 70 provides
a cutting force of 1,100 tonnes, while the
pulveriser jaw delivers 490 tonnes of force.
A jaw changeover time of five minutes is
claimed for the MK 70 and it is available with
three other sets in addition to the two taken
by Rivners. These consist of the concrete
shear set mentioned above, a crusher jaw and
a special pulveriser set that features dual steel
cutting blades that cuts the rebar within the
concrete being crushed.
Rivners immediately put its new tool
to work on a contract in the middle of the
Swedish capital city of Stockholm. This is
the demolition of the former headquarters
building of AB Atomenergi in the
Liljeholmen district of the city. This former
industrial district of the city is increasingly
being redeveloped for residential use.
Originally built in 1964 as the headquarters
of the state AB Atomenergi (Atomic Energy),
Nutek House has served as the home for
Nutek–Tillväxtverket (Swedish Agency for
Economic and Regional Growth) since AB
Atomenergy ceased operation. Its demolition
is being carried out to make way for a

The school opened in 1957 and was the first
state secondary school in the town. The school’s
facilities were expanded in the early 1970s,
but time has taken its toll and a new building
has been built to replace it on the old school’s
sports fields as part of a general regeneration
of Scotland’s school buildings. The demolition
of the old building will free up land for new
playing fields for the school building.
JCH Plant’s fleet now includes four
demolition specification Doosan excavators,
which are joined by a Doosan DL300
wheeled loader, for use on demolition

Northshore Manufacturing has introduced two
new Builtrite trash/sorting grapples that can be
used with its own equipment, stationary waste
handlers or excavators to provide a handling
solution across a wide range of applications
including construction and demolition waste
handling and actual demolition work. The new
attachments are the 955 kg (2,101 lb|) THS
20T and the 1,295 kg (2,849 lb) THS 24T. They
feature full 360° continuous rotation on heavy

An MB Dig A Crusher BF90.1 crushing bucket,
teamed with a Hitachi ZX210, is supplying 30 tonnes
of material per hour for use for paths and roads in
remote parts of Scotland
Walk in
the park
In an unusual application, an MB BF90.1
crushing bucket, supplied by UK dealer
Worsley Plant, is being used by McGowan
Outdoor Access to provide aggregate
from local rock sources. Since 2009,
McGowan has been providing low impact,
environmentally sensitive methods of
construction to create roads, paths and
bridges across rural Scotland, with clients
including private estates, National Parks
such as Loch Lomond, and government
bodies such as the Forestry Commission.
Using the crushing bucket, McGowan
is able to crush the rock down to 60 mm
(2.4 inch) and then transport it to where
it is needed using site dumpers. With
many of the locations where the company
works being located high up in the Scottish
mountains, access issues mean that
the user of larger crushing plant is not
feasible.
Managing director Ross McGowan
commented on the new attachment:
“Using the crushing bucket has saved
us considerable time, as well as
transportation and material costs. The
nature of our work and the difficult
access to many jobs means that recycling
materials not only makes the job more
cost effective, but also helps us to achieve
our aim to provide environmentally friendly
methods of building roads, pathways and
bridges in rural areas thus protecting the
natural environment and reducing our
carbon footprint.”
ebrüder Kirchner Gmbh based in
Elxleben, Germany, has demolished a
cultural and recreational complex in
Erfurt that will be replaced by a new shopping
centre. The 3 storey building on Moskauer
Plaz, built in 1984, housed a restaurant, two
halls, a library, a bowling alley and other
rooms and offered the 7,000 residents in the
immediate vicinity a wide range of activities.
However, it closed its doors in 1997 and since
then has lain vacant.
In an eight week project, Kirchner used an
all-Doosan fleet of machines that operated
from eight to 12 hours a day. This consisted
of two Doosan DX300LC excavators (one
a new Stage IIIB compliant DX300LC-3), a
DX255LC-3 crawler excavator, a DX190W
wheeled excavator and a DL420-3 wheel loader

Glasgow blowdown
clears the way
Safedem recorded another explosive
demolition in the Scottish city of Glasgow
when it brought down a 25-storey block
of flats in Roystonhill in the north of the
city. The demolition forms part of Glasgow
Housing Authority’s ongoing regeneration
programme with the site, once cleared, being
used for the construction of 100 new GHA
homes. GHA has invested more than £1.3
billion since 2003 in modernising, improving
and building homes across the city.
These new homes are just part of wider
plans to regenerate the north of Glasgow, with
a further 141 being built in Sighthill and 157
in Barmulloch. Alex McGuire, Director of
Property for Wheatley Group, GHA’s parent
company, said: “This is one part of a new
beginning for the North of Glasgow. These
flats were home to hundreds of families since
1968 – but their time had come to an end.
These exciting regeneration plans will see
the area transformed with hundreds of new
homes being built. We’d like to thank all of
the tenants and local businesses for their
cooperation in another successful demolition.”
The block was charged with 40 kg (88
lb) of explosive by specialist contractor
Safedem to bring the structure down in just
five seconds. Safedem managing director
William Sinclair said of the blowdown: “It
requires a real team effort and everyone has
pulled together to make this another safe and
successful demolition. We’d particularly like
to thank nearby residents for their patience
and understanding while the demolition was
carried out.”
The site will be cleared of the 10,000
tonnes of demolition debris by the middle of
2014, with steel and other metals removed for
recycling and other debris crushed and used

Draco Demolition’s newly acquired
Brokk 100 demolition robot is currently
working at the Mall of Rosebank in
Johannesburg, South Africa, where it is
helping to prepare the way for an up-date
and extension to the existing mall that
will connect it to the Gautrain rail link in
the city. The aim of the work is to create
a premier retail and commercial hub for
shoppers, train passengers, pedestrians
and residents in the area.
The Brokk’s ability to operate on floors
with load restrictions and the ease of
movement from one work location to
another within the building have proven
attractive to the contractor, as has the
machine’s ability to be used in close
proximity to a live environment. The
requirement of the contract is such that
retail units around where the machine
is working have to remain open to
customers while work is ongoing. This
means that Draco has had to be able to
work in line with very strict requirements
regarding dust generation and regulated
hours of work. The machine is expected
to have processed 150-200 m2 (1,6152,153 ft2) of concrete by the time work
is completed in mid 2014.

A
redundant water intake tower is
currently being reduced in height by
half at the Mardi Dam in New South
Wales using concrete cutting techniques that
is being carried out from barges moored
alongside the 20 m (66 ft) structure. A new
intake tower was constructed in 2010 to
transfer water from the Dam to the Mardi
Treatment Plant in a Aus$57 million (US$50.1
million) upgrade as part of a long term
strategy developed by Gosford City and
Wyong Shire Councils to secure the water
supply and protect the environment known as
WaterPlan 2050.
In a statement, manager of headworks
Garry Casement said of the demolition: “We
wanted to find the best and most economical
way to carry out the demolition works without
compromising water quality. We consulted
a number of engineering and demolition
companies and came up with a plan to remove
the tower in a safe and cost effective way.”
“Over the past few weeks a number of
barges have been assembled to form working
platforms. The demolition equipment,
including concrete saws and a diamond wire
saw, sit on these barge platforms to complete
the work. We will progressively cut away the
top 10 m of the 20 m tower and use the rubble
to fill in and stabilise the remaining part of
the tower,” he said.
As the work progresses, the water level
in the dam will be dropped to 40% through
normal usage or transfers through the MardiMangrove Link.
“Careful attention has been placed on
choosing demolition and waste management
methods that will not affect the dam’s water
quality. Council staff will conduct regular
inspections of the site and take extra water
quality samples during demolition to ensure
water quality remains high,” said Garry. The
work is expected to be completed by the end
of January 2014 and represents an investment
of Aus$270,000 (US$241,000) into the water
■
supply system.
School work good
value for Freeley
School work has provided a good return for
J Freeley over the last two years, during which
time it has demolished six such buildings
that generated earnings of £1 million (US$1.7
million) for the company. Its latest project
was the demolition of the former Stamford
Community High School in Ashton under
Lyme in Greater Manchester, UK, for client
Inspiredspaces Tameside. This is a company
that was set up to deliver the UK government’s
Building Schools for the Future programme in
the borough.
Once the contract was awarded the actual
demolition had to be delayed for a year for two
reasons. First, an issue concerning protected
species raised its head – the presence of a bat
colony in one of the school buildings. To deal
with the this issue, bat boxes were installed
in trees around the site prior to demolition
and high intensity lighting was installed and
focussed on the buildings to deter the bats from
from roosting inside. Second, the old school
had been booked for the filming of episodes
of the UK television series Shameless. Once
work finally commenced, the demolition was
completed in 18 weeks, two ahead of schedule.
Four buildings were brought down, largely
by mechanical means, by the 12 man crew
using excavators fitted with grabs, pulverisers
and a shear that was used to process the steelframed structures. An electricity substation
had to be retained live on the site during the
work, which required the team to protect the
cables running from it. Noise was also an issue,
with monitoring being required to ensure that
limits were not exceeded.
A total of 15,000 tonnes of concrete and
masonry was generated by the demolition,
UK contractor J Freeley has completed its
sixth school demolition in two years, the latest

venue for its Spring
Seminar on Friday
28th February, 2014. Details of the
programme are yet to be announced but
given the success of the event over recent
years, it is sure to be a major draw for
the UK demolition industry.
D&Ri usually attends the Seminar, but
unfortunately this year the date clashes
with the NDA’s annual convention and the
ConExpo trade show, both of which are
being held in Las Vegas. As a result, we
have to absent ourselves from the IDE
event this year, but hope to report on it
through the efforts of third parties in a

Berlin conference
programme unveiled
T
he Deutscher Abbruchverband has
released the programme for its 2014
Berlin Demolition conference that
will take place on 28 and 29 March at the
Intercontinental Berlin hotel on Budapaster
Strasse. Once again, the DA has arranged
for simultaneous translation into French
and English to be available for the event.
D&Ri has been attending this event every
year, and considers it to be one of the best
information forums for the industry, as well as
being among the best attended events for the
industry worldwide – it is well worth taking
the time to be there.
As is normally the case with this event,
the conference features a packed technical
programme, with a total of 19 technical papers
scheduled to be presented over the course
of the full day on March 28. A wide range of
topics will be covered, from practical examples
of modern demolition projects, such as the
Ticona plant decommissioning, the Sinntal
road bridge blowdown and the Sparkasse
HQ renovation project, through to the latest
in recycling technology and demolition
regulations.
On the Saturday, the DA will offer trips to
view ongoing demolition projects in the region
around Berlin, with the day kicking off with a
forum discussion. But of course, the previous
evening will see the traditional outing to the
‘Old Pumphouse’ for an evening of Frei Bier
and traditional Berlin fare, always an effective
■
lubricant for discussion.
NDA updates
Safety Manual
The National Demolition Association has
released an updated version of its Demolition
Safety Manual that incorporates new
